 This article describes the password policies and complexity requirements associated with user accounts in your Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenant.
 
 ## Administrator reset policy differences
 
-**Microsoft enforces a strong default *two-gate* password reset policy for any Azure administrator role** this policy may be different from the one you have defined for your users and cannot be changed. You should always test password reset functionality as a user without any Azure administrator roles assigned.

 ## UserPrincipalName policies that apply to all user accounts
 
-Every user account that needs to sign in to Azure AD must have a unique user principal name (UPN) attribute value associated with their account. The following table outlines the policies that apply to both on-premises Active Directory user accounts that are synchronized to the cloud and to cloud-only user accounts:

 ## Set password expiration policies in Azure AD
 
-A global administrator or user administrator for a Microsoft cloud service can use the Microsoft Azure AD Module for Windows PowerShell to set user passwords not to expire. You can also use Windows PowerShell cmdlets to remove the never-expires configuration or to see which user passwords are set to never expire.
